Wassim Haddad, Winner of the 2014 Pendray Aerospace Literature Award, American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics "The book is lucid and well written and contains numerous worked examples for specific applications to important classes of systems as well as numerous problems and suggestions for further study at the end of the main chapters. This book will be an excellent source of reference materials for graduate students of applied mathematics, control theorists and engineers studying the stability theory of dynamical systems and controls. It will also be a rich source of materials for self study by researchers and practitioners interested in systems theory of engineering, controls, computer science, chemistry, life sciences and economics."--Olusola Akinyele, Mathematical Reviews
